Galilean moons

of Jupiter. they go round Jupiter, look. as if gravity holds them in orbit....................

FE response?



(BTW: yes, you can see them with a cheap home telescope, none of this conspiracy shit!)

I think they will tell you it's an optical illusion or some such other evasive crap. I will guarantee they will not answer your question to your satisfaction.

or just not reply at all, that's my bet.
assuming it actually goes against FE. it supports gravity, but they will probably say some shite like gravity applies to everything except the earth.

Dogplatter, at least, denies the existence of gravity, on Earth or anywhere else.

Yes well Dogplatter also believes that the dinosaurs built boats for intercontinental travel, so I wouldn't trust much of what he says.

Don't forget the genetically engineered penguins.

I think one of them actually denies the existence of other planets, but I don't think he will come into this forum to debate his point.

we will never forget the penguins.

...........

the most blatant ignorance ever?

In the news today: Scientists are about to announce 3 new planets in our solar system, Ceres, Charon and the temporarily named 2003UB313, taking the number of planets from 9 to 12.
Now why on Earth would they want to do that, what possible benefit will this offer to the conspiracy theory?
It just makes matters more complicated, why would they want to do that?

the picture of jupiter was painted on the inside of a telescope, with a little revoling galilean moon transparency bolted inside. it's all a conspiracy.

You sir, are a charlatan!

You sir, are a charlatan!

You, sir, are a name caller!

WAHHHHHHHHHH

Actually, many believe the theory of gravity holds for other planets, it just happens to be different on Earth.  Earth is infinitely different than other planets already: water, atmosphere, LIFE.  So different models can hold for other planets.

Even in the FE model, the Earth is much larger than the largest asteroids. Gravity shapes objects into spheroids, provided they are above a certain mass. The largest asteroids are spheroids. If you admit the existence of gravity, why has it not formed Earth into a spheroid?

What part of Earth is an exception was difficult to understand?

So Earth doesn't obey gravity? Earth may be ane exception in that it has atmosphere, etc, but I fail to see how that would make it an exception in the way it reacts to gravity.

well... we could go with the theistic response, but you already know that one.

We dont understand the true mechanics of gravity, noone knows how it works, so it could not work on the Earth, you never know, but obviously something happened, the Earth is flat.

Hahaha... "Why doesn't gravity make the Earth round? Well, the Earth is flat, so obviously gravity somehow doesn't work on Earth". Talk about circular reasoning.

I'm sorry, I felt the need to do that once, at least you found it funny instead of taking it offensively.  Yea, but the point still stands.

We do understand the mechanics of gravity more than well enough to show that an object with the mass of even a flat Earth would collapse into a spheroid. The Earth being "special" in no way changes that. Any object with mass has gravity, so unless you deny that the Earth has mass, Earth is a spheroid.
